French Cued Speech (LfPC), also known as Cued Speech, is a visual code that makes the sounds of the language easier to distinguish. It combines lip-reading with hand gestures to resolve ambiguities between sounds that look alike when spoken.

What it does :

The project “T is for Treu, but how do you pronounce that? Integrating pronunciation respellings into multimodal language learning resources” aims to help teachers and heritage learners of the Drehu language, spoken by the indigenous Kanak people of New Caledonia, to correctly pronounce words by addressing conflicts between written and spoken language. Specifically, the project focuses on the word ‘treu’, which means ‘moon’ in Drehu. The challenge is that the pronunciation of ‘treu’ may be influenced by the French language, leading to incorrect pronunciation.
